SPOILER!!: Amur

He bobbed inside at Amur's back, the blonde of her hair distracting him as the light took to it. Already it was more comfortable inside than the walk had been. "Welcome," Zeke mururmed in reply, pausing beside her, his hands returning to the depths of his pockets once more.

Initially his mind had been set on his butterer, but that was quickly reprioritised as Amur voiced her thoughts on the coming summer. Granted, it was a while away, but he was hoping the time would fly. Not because he wasn't enjoying his third year at Hogwarts, he was, but he was excited for what would come next. His brows shot up when she said not a tick. NOT A TICK. He could at least appreciate that there was so much more to do at Hogwarts than out in the world, so he nodded his understanding. "I suppose," he agreed verbally, and since that was more or less covered he quickly slipped in a question so they could order and move. "Hot chocolate or butterer?" he asked as he started toward the bar.

As for how to NOT leave Hogwarts for the summer? "Uuuuhhhh... offer to help the groundskeeper maintain the ... grounds?" yeah, it was his first thought. "Or better yet, maybe you could ask to be an apprentice stable hand over the break? It'd beat any internship you could get in Diagon." EASY. Cause creatures were often better company than people. Was this a thing that could happen? Because if so... then he might consider it also.

But as the conversation was directed back to him, he realised he wanted to be home more than he wanted to be at Hogwarts over break. "Yeah, I miss mum, and there are things I need to sort out that's hard to do at school." Meaning, it was hard to do from HERE, in Scotland, so far away. If only HE could portkey home for a bit and come back.

She didn't need anyone to hold said door open for her. Her hands worked fine enough as it was thank-you-very-much, so did her arm muscles. They may not have looked like much, but she was working on it. Had it been any other besides Zeke, she would have said something. But this was Zeke, and he was her friend. And he was pratically shoving her through the door, so there was no point in protest. That, and it was right frigid outside. So, Amur shuffled inside and waited for him to join her, blowing into her own hands to warm them a little. "Thanks." Her nose twitched at all the strange smells in the place, at the musty air and the light din of noise floating about their heads. Warm drinks. That was why they were here. Because Zeke didn't seem to know the definition of 'winter'. That being, it got cold. That meant one needed....nevermind. She'd already given him the appraising, one-arched-eyebrow to make her statement earlier. No need in rehashing. "Not a tick." Surprised he even knew that summer was a different season. "Too much to do around Hogwarts. I'll be right bored come the summer." Not that the farm wasn't fun, couldn't be fun. But she wasn't allowed to practice magic there. *"Trying to come up with a game plan not* to have to leave." Amur eyed her friend sideways. "You are?" Obviously, at least for the warmth.
